If you'd like to learn more about how these, and other caches were conceived and created, stop by the Visitor Center and join in the fun!
We will start off the day with an Intro to Geocaching for anyone who is interested in learning more about Geocaching, GPS receivers and how to get started. For more experienced cachers, this will be a great day to share stories about favorite caches and cache containers that you have found!
We will talk about all the caches mentioned here… and then show you how you can create and hide your own Geocache!
After learning the basics of GPS navigation, you can try out your new-found skills right here, on the refuge’s GeoQuest Trail and learn about Parker River National Wildlife Refuge in the process! The Refuge road is open only from the Lot 1 to Hellcat Observation Area, so not all of the stages of the GeoQuest Trail are available right now. But there are a few stages open now, and there may be more as we get closer to the day for your first trial run. The first stage is conveniently located on the property of the Visitor Center.
There will also be some unique cache containers on hand to check out, too, and you may even win one!
And don’t forget… this event is a registered “Maker Madness” event so not only will you have fun learning about Geocaching and the Refuge… you will also earn this special “Maker Madness” souvenir from Groundspeak for attending the event!
